With GotG vol. 4 coming out in trade format tomorrow I think all the current Cosmic Marvel books, sans Thanos Imperative of course, will be out in that format. Anyone here have all 18 volumes? That's all 3 volumes of Annihilation, both volumes of A: Conquest, War of Kings along with WoK: Warriors (if you have the hardcover like me then it's all one volume), Realm of Kings, Nova volumes 1-6, and GotG volumes 1-4.
Amazing how all those stories range from "good" to "freaking fantastic".

I have all of them yeah. The only trades I'm missing are the one which comes out tomorrow and the Thanos one which will be out next years I think, and I'm getting GotG vol 4 pretty soon.
I have roughly half of that list, maybe more but working on a complete set. I'll have to remember to check TFAW's black friday and see if they have some missing pieces back in their Nick & Dent stock
I have all the trades that encompass the major storylines of Annihilation, Emperor Vulcan, and Planet Hulk through to the present. This excludes anything that has Red Hulk in it but includes Secret Invasion.

I couldn't get into war of kings because Vulcan and the Shi'ar are forever an x-men thing for me. Also my ideal Inhumans storyline involves Attilan being obliterated by the Eternals.

The Eternals rock.
I like some of the Inhumans though (Black Bolt, Crystal and Lockjaw).

Crystal & Lockjaw are cool. Not hot on the rest of them. I'd also like to see Ronan find a way to restore the Supreme Intelligence.

As far as I know, the Supreme Intelligence is still with Wraith, who hasn't been seen since Conquest. So there's potential for a return there.

One thing I do hope doesn't happen now that this chapter of cosmic marvel is closed (or one issue away from closing), everything turns back to normal. Skrulls somehow turn back into a threat, they hate the Kree, Kree are militant jerks, Lilandra comes back to life (if anyone needs to stay dead in the cosmic world it's her), Gladiator goes back to not being cool, Galactus is still a generic near omnipotent threat, etc.

Wraith wasn't really the best character to be introduced during Conquest. An emo, goth Kree with no soul who can speak to the dead or something. Unless they want to use him to bring back Star Lord, Nova and Black Bolt, he should really stay gone.

If you can't beat them, arrange to have them beaten in your presence.
There is no reason to bring back Wraith. Ever. Not even for a deadpool team up.
As To them hitting a cosmic reset: I seriously doubt it. There are parts that I'm sure will slide back, but I don't forsee a time when the Skrulls are again a major power, and unless one of the Xmen writers feels a desperate need to cover some hitherto unknown ground with the shiiar then theres about a -5% chance that Lilandra will return.

They'll pull a Mass Effect and say all those skrulls were just a tangent of the real skrull force.

or any of the other bullshit Dalek return methods :P
Yea a reset at any point would be pretty bad, what makes Cosmic Marvel so compelling right now is that they are able to tell an evolving story that changes things in a natural and long term way.

Hate Doctor Who.
People I know are always (OK, sometimes) like "hey, you like sci-fi right? Dr Who!" And I have to tell them that not, I hate it. And then people who like it are all "how can you now like it? It's British, not some American trash!" And then I have to tell them I usually hate British TV and much prefer American shows. And that usually gets me some shit, I can tell you.

A decent cosmic story could be done out of rebuilding the Kyln and chasing down a bunch of the prisoners that escaped the Wave.

And if Drax comes back with anything less that direct intervention by the living tribunal I will flip some shit. He was killed by an avatar of death in a universe later imploded by death.

I supposed they could have this huge skrull empire come out of a dimensional vortex or something from a universe where the skrulls kicked every body's ass. Instant skrull repopulation.

Theres no reason for him to return. Thanos is stuck in a collapsed universe.
Yes. And I've wanted to see what happened with the Fallen One since Annihilation.
We got an answer to that one already: He got by Aegis. It's fair to assume he is in fact defunct.
Though, the whole kyln thing does raise questions about what happened to Skreet.
And if Drax comes back with anything less that direct intervention by the living tribunal I will flip some shit. He was killed by an avatar of death in a universe later imploded by death.
What i don't understand is how Chaos War is happening. Or is the Chaos King's attack localised to just this universe?
Because I'm wondering why the Living Tribunal hasn't gone "Oh this is absolutely not happening" and stopped the Chaos King with nothing more then a thought.

Yep. Get Quasar to do it. Or basically scrounge together as many of the Guardians who are left to give it a go, that could be cool. "I wish Pete/Drax/Phylla/Adam was here..."

See, this is the thing. We know that the living tribunal is out there, and that he's powerful enough that only the one above all can tell him to shove off. I know that everyone is afraid that he's too easy of a Deus Ex to use but the fact is that he's really the absolute hardest one of all; most shit just is completely beneath his notice.
Frankly, the chaos king isn't an apropriate part of any given universe since he represents chaos so complete and utter that life, matter and energy simply can't exist. Even galactus (who is the embodiment of entropy) represents a sort of ordered pace for universal decay and not just this insane bedlam.
Maybe at the end of the arc he'll make an appearance to imprison chaos king or give the heroes enough edge to kick his ass.

The Living Tribunal is just trying to put together the best Haiku ever to wreck the Chaos King's shit.
I've actually been thinking about this (i should be doing work but fuck it).
The Living Tribunal is the 2nd most powerful being in existence. The most powerful is his boss, The One Above All (aka God. Not just any God, THE God).
I'm going to assume that The Living Tribunal hasn't acted because he hasn't needed to. Like us (the reader), he knows that the Herc and the other heroes will stop The Chaos King. Who lives and dies is a matter that he doesn't actually care about. If the Chaos King actually represented a threat to the entire multiverse, (not just Earth 616) that no one else could stop, The Living Tribunal would have ruined his shit straight away.

He was in space for a while, chilling with Nova during the Phalanx thing. After that, he spent some time on Earth, giving Magneto his powers back.
Wait whaaaaaaaaaaaa
There's a DnA Thor/Iron Man series?
He'll just sit there on the thone, just chillin'.
Like a boss.

Celestials stop by on their way back from the Fault and eat the remaining Skrulls, seeing as how they eat Deviants.

Also yep. Bitch be dead.

I'd read that.
In what context does Gamora appear though?
I need to know for, er, science.
